I Challenge the Uber-Meek of Ghallanda Server

[Guder]

(If any are still playing after all the whining about everything and it's brother since between then and now....and likely continuing until whenever whoever does whatever so whichever can come out and do its' something...Do0M1! my a$#)

PUG quality is not the issue...the issue is the complacency of those that Can & Should but DON'T...
The quality of PUG groups has never been anything other than what it is now...what is lacking are experienced players that have the mindset of leading a PUG group just to pass on the enjoyment of DDO to someone who doesn't know how good it can be.
I am not trying to incite Honduras...nor a Persian revolution...not even trying to discourage the Blahs...

I just believe Ghallanda server has better...is better...and can be better than to have a post like a recent OP.

Recent threads asked to single out for comparison Ghallanda's best with the same motive as I am challenging here...because some of us are tired, bored and would appreciate you PICKIN' It Up Instead of Pickin' Ya Nose!

Quit yer Whining, Get off ur backside, Step OUT of your fuzzy slipper zone, don't stuff your drawers with ur guildies...

AND LEAD!!!!

Dig in and knock one outta here...and post a screenie...hallaleuya and pass the tap

I have a better challenge: Uber-Meek of Ghallanda unite! Get off your duffs and FORM YOUR OWN **** GROUPS!!!

I love helping. We all needed it. But adults learn best by doing, not watching.

I challenge every and all players to LEAD their own groups. Take up the challenge of forming your own raids. Go forward with the knowledge that courage is the ability to recognize fear and step through it. Have faith that you have run something enough to know how to complete it and courageously challenge yourself to muster other players around you using the LFM system.

This is the only way the 'Uber-Meek' (as Guder calls them) will pass on to the next level of game play.

Uber-Meek?


Pfft... Im wayyyy too humble for this thread.

If only I had thought of hand carrying people through quests before hand, I never would have failed that hound pug where the noobtastic ranger decided to show off his new Keen Short Sword of Puncturing on the little dogs.

Point being, the quality of PUGS have gone down because people dont listen. When you try to say "Hey, that +3 Anarchaic Bow of PG might not be the best portal beater" or "Hey noobfart...blackscale armor is sooooo 4 mods ago" all you catch is static in the form of "I DO WHAT I WANT...STOP TELLING ME HOW TO PLAY MY TOONS"

If you are inexperianced...fine, I dont know this game 100%

If you dont know what the score is, just ask "what should I be doing" and Ill be happy to tell you. What I cant stand is when when I ask "Is anyone here unfamiliar with a quest" and I get crickets...only to have 3 people get lost and die on the way to hound, rerun to the quest...only to fail because people didnt have any idea whats going on.

Oh...Bronko...I heart your idea too

In the last week I have heard four or five guild leaders just flat out say they were tired, or bored, or tired of being bored...or worse...'hungry'.
When I eat...I don't lead groups. Kinda hard to chew ona buh`rito and 'splain VoD' in one big breath.
Just makin an observation..not calling for Honduras to be couped...

I am WAAAAAAY inspired but have no idea what I'm s'posed to do. Does this pertain to me? What's going on?

TL DR Version - Do away with group in guild rules first and those who would rather solo than play with a group should get a group for quests so that the community is tighter than ever.....

correct Gud?
